Weekend Reads: Japanese Science-Fiction & Marvel Comics
Reading? What is this reading thing? Is it some kind of magic? Or perchance a yummy treat, preferably with chocolate. No? Hmmm… maybe it’s a juicy roast chicken! Not that either, hu? How about a floofy mutation of cat? No way you say? Well then, my friend, you’ve got me beat. Silliness aside, I have…
Currently Reading: YA Immigrant Stories & #OwnVoices Korean Historical Fiction
Reading has been really relaxing for me lately. I’m not sure if it’s because I’ve been pacing myself with it and only reading one book at a time, or if I’ve just been picking the perfect titles for whatever my current mood or literary craving has been. Whatever the reason, it’s been such a welcome…
Weekend Reads: Japanese Non-Fiction & Islamic Epic Fantasy
Self-quarantine has been going far better for me this past week than the previous one. Now that I’ve had some time to accept that we’re in it for the long haul, it made me acquire a bit o’ faith that this also won’t last forever. I need to be hopeful if I am to survive…
Weekend Reads: Latinx Thriller & Japanese Fashion Culture
Happy Friday afternoon, Chums! I decided to mix things up this weekend since I had to finagle my blogging schedule around for some special Saturday posts.

Happy Saturday morning, Chums! As I sit here, looking over the at books I want to read during the weekend and into the coming week, I can’t help but find a sense of comfort in the things around me. A stack of stories. Hues of orange and red outside of my windows. A purring ninja…
Weekend Reads: Badass Female Warriors & Sinister Sneaky Assassins
Good morning, Chums. I hope that you’re all doing well! This is my first weekend back from the blogging vacation, which went rather splendidly. Aside from actually figuring out how to bloody well relax, it gave me time to decipher what I’d like to do with BiblioNyan for the rest of the year. But I’ll…
Weekend Reads: Korean Suspense Thriller & YA Chinese Fantasy
Happy Saturday morning, chums! Welcome to BiblioNyan. Before I jump into my weekend reading plans, I wanted to provide a brief update on the 1,000 Follower Giveaway.

Weekend Reads: Psychological Thriller & Chinese Historical Thriller
Dude, it’s Saturday! Where did this week go? It flew by so damn fast, almost like a tofu drift blowing past you from Akina’s Drift King himself. Granted, I’ve been battling the worst heat exhaustion this week and have been spending all of my free time (i.e.: not working time) in bed with cold water,…
Weekend Reads: YA Sci-Fi Horror & Mystery Suspense Thriller
Bula, Chums! Saturday morning has arrived after a week that sort of flew on by quickly. This was also a terrible week for the world as there were tragedies and travesties everywhere. Because of that, I spent most of my week in a depressed stupor. My goal for the weekend is to allow myself to…

Weekend Reads: Urban Fantasy & Japanese-style Western Manga
Ah, the birds are chirping. The bees are buzzing. The pollen is off whimsically poisoning. It smells and looks like a typical Spring day on the West Coast. Lucky for me I get to miss all of this as I am snoring away the live-long day in bed with Kheb, and let’s be honest, I…
Weekend Reads: Fantasy, YA Contemporary, & Japanese Thriller
Good morning, chums! I have to be honest with y’all, Ramadan has me feeling sleepy all the live long day. I’m going to blame the outrageously hot weather that we’ve been having in California, along with the long days (approximately 16-17 hours). Normally, I would be thrilled to have an excuse to nap for extended…

Happy Sunday morning, chums! Before I dive into my current reads, I wanted to take a moment and say a special shout-out to everyone who is a parent. I know that today is specifically for mothers, but not every parent out there is a mother or a father, and I believe that all of them…
